At the end of the first period, Binnington subtly interfered with Penguins' forward Jason Zucker:
Originally, Binnington was called for a 4 minute double-minor for high sticking, but the call was reversed to no penalty upon review. The officials explained that it was not Binnington's stick that caused Zucker to bleed.

To make matters worse for the Blues, replacement goaltender Thomas Greiss caught an edge on his way into the goal crease:
